This is definitely in my top three of games to be playing this year. I've been replaying Oblivion recently so I'm pretty excited about this (the others being ME3 and DA2 - though what I'm hearing about DA2 doesn't fill me with confidence, to be honest).

Oblivion was fucking awesome until I learned that you can adjust difficulty at any point in the game & fact that enemies scaled with your level (something seems wrong about being able to defeat these epic enemies and become the head of a guild at level 2).

Yea yea, I could have left it alone, but I have no self control in these matters.

Yes that was the biggest problem with oblivion. Fortunately people made mods where this was fixed (along with the arrow speed). I hope they wont scale enemy to your level in this one.

There will be level scaling, but you're supposed to be able to gain a real advantage eventually (as opposed to being on a fairly level field with almost every adversary in Oblivion). I believe they've also fixed bandits in Daedric, too.
